You can view each applicant's application form, cover letter, and resume in PAWs. A good first step is for the hiring committee or hiring manager to go through and evaluate whether each applicant is qualified or not qualified and mark each applicant accordingly.
Efficieny Tip: Since may of our positions attract a large quantity of applicants, the disposition should be completed as applicants are screened.
A successful recruitment should have a minmum of five (5) applicants with a status of "meets qualifications" and a minimum of three (3) applicants selected to interivew. When completing the disposition in PAWS, a comment box will appear in which you need to further expalin your evaluation of each interviewed applicant. For the selected applicant to hire, change the status to "offer made or hired" and enter the reason in the comments section.
To finalize the disposition, each candidate must have a status selection marked, each applicant must have comments in the comment section and at least one applicant must be marked as "hired". At this point, click "save" After this has been completed, a "finalize" button will appear. Click "finalize" and the disposition is complete.
Remember that all applicants who were interviewed but not selected for hire need to be contacted by someone on the hiring committee to let them know that the position has been filled. All applicants who were not selected for an interview will be notified by UCM Human Resources via email.
